He is celebrated as the magician of light.
He was a pioneer in bringing a gently
flowing quality to film cinematography.
His frames have fluid movement and are
aesthetically set. Many have trained under
him and attained fame in Tamil and Hindi.
But, PC, as he is fondly called, takes
his maiden step in Hindi only now with
a soon to be launched film which would
have Amitabh Bachan and Tabu in the lead.

Asked
about his somewhat delayed approach to
Hindi while many of his associates have
already found success, he cited lack of
knowledge of Hindi as a stumbling block.
Now, he has polished his Hindi much and
hence is confident. We are sure he would
delight the Hindi audience there as well.
PC has also directed Kurudhippunal and
Vaanam Vasapadu in Tamil.
